    Try 0+2 or OEM7 (ACPITBL at End) Method.
    One of these Methods will usually work.

    OEM7 (ACPITBL at End) works for latest BIOS on my GA-P55-UD4P but you can't restore saved CMOS settings from F9.
    Just have to redo setup but it works fine.

    I also have a problem with latest Gigabyte bios (ver. FKB for GA-MA770UD3 rev.2.0). The SSV3 does not work anymore. I tried 0+2 and OEM7 - bios patched with those methods hangs the computer during the "Verifying DMI Pool Data" stage.

    Tried to modify a Gigabyte BIOS for the GA-890FXA-UD5 with Dell Slic 2.1 + SLP, but get his message
    "Unable to perform an SSV3 mod as there is no EPA module" never had problems with AMD boards of Gigabyte before, anybody any idea
    how to fix this problem?

    Also tried dynamic No Slic Table found....

    Only option work was SSV1, but as I understood SSV3 was best for Gigabyte boards.
    Still have to test if SSV1 works or not....

    I propose not to try SSV1.....

    Tried SSV1 on MA770-UD3 V1.0 and actually bricked it but was able to recover (by shortening two pins on the bios chip and the backup bios took over)
